Today, sometime between 8:15 and 8:45 our last caterpillar shed it's skin and became a chrysalis. We noticed at the very end of the process- we didn't see the skin being shed, but did observe the chrysalis wiggling around and setting into the chrysalis phase. I am guessing we will have our first butterfly by the end of the week.

We also continued our discussion of living and non-living things today and read several books about this. Through our discussions we are slowly refining our conceptions of what determines if something is living. Today we learned three things that living things need. See if your child remembers any of them!
